    Ragebait like DailyBeast is why Trump is in power

    No, that was bigotry, racism, billionaire-controlled media, voter suppression and foreign interference. The Daily Beast’s influence is lost in the noise compared to those factors.

    And how likely do you really think it is that Trump would direct the captive, corrupt DoJ to exercise leniency? It’s like someone is waving a gun in someone else’s face and you’re saying “well, ackshually, we don’t really know if he intends to use it to intimidate or shoot that guy.” And the gunman is a known sadist who places no value on human life.
